The award was granted by the Ministry of the Presidency, Public Administration and Interior of the Junta de Andalucía for his performance in the crisis of the Covid-19, Nerja town hall said in a statement on May 7.
For the mayor this well-deserved recognition to Civil Protection of Nerja is a source of satisfaction. “The volunteers have played a fundamental role of attention to the neighbors and support to the City Council, the Local Police and the Civil Guard, doing a discreet but very effective work in each of their actions,” José Alberto Armijo said.
The intention of the City Council is to provide the Civil Protection group with a new base to replace the current facilities located in Calle Carabeo.
In the next town hall plenary session proposals will be discussed to relocate the Civil Protection headquarters to a new site adjacent to the Enrique Lopez Cuenca sports complex.
